All juried exhibitions and competitions at Dangenart Gallery are judged by a panel that consists of at least three jurors. Each panel is led by curating director Daniel Lai. Jurors are selected by Lai based on the former's curatorial visions that emphasize on aesthetic merit and originality and are devoid of personal taste.

Yesterday, my dad hurt his back. A couple of his clients thought they would cheer him up by bringing him the best burgers in Kentucky...fresh DOVIE's...and a T-shirt to boot! Although I am vegetarian, I can say from my younger years that this is the best burger in America. My dad shared the bag-o-burgers with me and others...I shared my burgers with a friend who has spent time on a Montana ranch, and she said...they were really ggrrrreat!

Dovie's located in Tompkinsville, Kentucky has welcomed people inside for over 50 years. The Moore family founded Dovie's in 1940 and keeps the restaurant true to it's history with a menu that has the original Dovie's burger and a few other tasty surprises. Deep-frying and a secret sauce is the specialty at Dovie's. Dedicated locals have made this restaurant almost legendary.

Join us in this celebration of our students, ranging in age from elementary to adult. This is a reward for all the hard work done throughout the year; it's a time for families to see their students' work framed & displayed in our art gallery. Also showing, will be the work by our professional teachers including Andee Rudloff. We'll have refreshments and the popular art treasure hunt game for children.

In 2001, Andee worked with Judy Chicago for a semester on a major installation called "At Home: A Kentucky Project with Judy Chicago and Donald Woodman" (her husband). Following the close of the exhibition, John Oakes and Andee created a traveling exhibition called the At Home On Tour which is currently (Spring 2007) at Penn State University.

Have you heard that Judy Chicago's Dinner Party has a permanent home, in the Brooklyn Museum?

Andee will be attending the American Association of Airport Executives (AAAE) Arts at the Airport conference in Seattle, WA, next week. The conference will cover a multitude of Public Art topics.

Last autumn, I lost my artist soulmate, Patrick. At his Memorial in NYC we gathered at his home, shared stories, with blurry eyes - we all wished we were dreaming and would wake up to see his bright, shining smile. As the sun came down on the day, we all gathered by the river...by him...to thank him for being part of our lives. Each of us had a fresh rose to float down the windy river...and the river and the wind blew them right back to us...and he let us know he was right there, he was there that day. Finally, we lit a small urn ablaze that was full of messages and wishes for Patrick and it soared and sparked. So many tears...so so so many tears.

An artist, a dear sweet man and my friend...Lawrence Patrick Fleming. I will miss him.
